The Power of One: Creating the Bully-Free School You’ve Always Wanted

In past generations, bullying was considered a “rite of passage” into young adulthood – a harsh but accepted part of adolescence.  Today, we understand that no child should be afraid to come to school and that anxiety and fear in the classroom only prevent learning from taking place. While educators play a significant role in bullying prevention, students are also an integral part of creating a safer, more respectful school environment. In this engaging and interactive session, students will explore how to recognize bullying, support their peers, and respond with courage. They’ll leave empowered with the knowledge that even a small act of bravery and kindness can make a real difference in someone else’s life.
